Why choose Foreign Currency Direct?

Highly competitive foreign exchange rates

Our exchange rates are highly competitive and can beat those offered by the high street banks. The reason? We deal in high volumes and don’t go through intermediaries.

A small difference in the exchange rate can make a huge difference to your bottom line.

Trustworthy, knowledgeable, personal service

From the outset you have a personal account manager, who can develop a thorough understanding of your business and work collaboratively with you to help mitigate the impact of exchange rate volatility.

Whether you are making small payments or transferring lump sums, your account manager will discuss the different options available to you to help you make informed decision to manage your FX exposure.

No commission and no hidden charges

As well as getting highly competitive exchange rates, you’ll save by not paying commission or fees. Our profit comes from the margin between the buying and selling prices, for our corporate clients we don’t even charge any fees or commission.

Keeping your funds secure

We are a reliable and established provider with an excellent credit rating.

Established in 2000, we are authorised by the Financial Conduct Authority under the Payment Service Regulations 2009 for the provision of payment services (FRN 538392) and registered as a Money Service Business with HMRC (MSB number 12146539).

Moving money is fast and easy

Save time by letting us do the leg-work. Making international payments is quick, easy and hassle-free.

Your broker does most of the work for you. Once you confirm you are happy with the exchange rate, all you need to do is transfer the funds into our client account and send us the details of the destination account. When we receive the funds, we transfer the money.

It was really refreshing to go through a process that had absolutely no hiccups at all, the service that we were offered exceeded our expectations. We would unreservedly recommend the company to anyone seeking to exchange currency.

Very efficient service. I’ve never used a service like this before & was purchasing a house in France. It was all explained very well & I was kept informed all along the process. Putting a deposit down to pre-book the rate also saved us a fortune.
